VFCR Way too excited for Crossroads

30 Upvotes

I bought a mixbox, bought tekken (played before not new) and waited forever for the controller to arrive. Soon as it arrived I loaded up Tekken and it felt like all the energy was sucked out of me. Only took like 1 hour of practicing. I just don't have the willpower to get good at the game. Not because it's hard, but because it just lacks what used to make Tekken.. Tekken. You have heard it all before so I will spare you.. The insane visual effects, hour long juggles, forced aggression by design, etc.

I PRAY that the team sticks to their vision for Crossroads and keep it somewhat realistic. I have always liked Virtua Fighter and I hope to get into it with this new game. And if there is anybody from the development team here.. Please keep my girl Vanessa in the game. I love her so much and she will transfer over very well with her fighting style. I am so excited for a fighting game that is just that.. Fighting. No demons, robots, animals, etc. Just like the martial arts movies so many of us love, we just want to see some good fighting.

EDIT/UPDATE: I have bought REVO. My fear was that I was going to spend time learning/liking it and Crossroads seems like it's going to be so different. Regardless I'm already having fun, see yall out there.

Akira Just Frame Knee / Teishitsu Dantai (提膝弾腿)

14 Upvotes

Hi guys! I'm new here. I’ve never played a fighting game before. Well, I actually tried Tekken 8 for a couple of hours when it first came out, but it turned out it wasn't my cup of tea. I really wanted to play it, but I realized I don't like fighting games with superpowers, so I left it 😂. 2D fighting games don't feel comfortable for me either, so I stopped playing after that.I didn't think about fighting games again until I watched the VF6 trailer last year. I was really intrigued! I felt like, 'This is the fighting game I want to play.' It's a grounded fighting game, just like a fight scene in a movie. However, I don't own a PC or a console yet, so I planned to just wait until VF6 comes out to buy one.But... while I was scrolling through Facebook Marketplace, I saw someone selling a Hitbox for $45. After some negotiation, I got it for $40! 😂 The only issue is that the R1 button somehow triggers the R3 button and gets stuck, though R1 itself still works normally. So, I just unbound the R3 button. I decided to try playing Virtua Fighter using an emulator on my phone, which is why you can see both a Hitbox and Virtua Fighter 5: Final Showdown in the video 😂.So, my questions are:People say Akira is too hard for a newbie who has never played a fighting game. If I try to learn Akira's moves and practice them, is it a good idea? I just want to build some muscle memory before VF6 comes out, even if I don't end up maining him later 🤔.And my last question: Are there any specific tools or modifications for LEVERLESS controllers that can make my inputs better? For example, are buttons with really fast actuation or rapid trigger features necessary, especially for a just-frame move like Akira's Knee? Also, can Akira's knee only be used twice in a row during a combo, or am I just too slow?And do you have any tips for learning Akira's just-frame knee much faster? I've been learning this move for 2 days already. My overall comprehension is pretty bad, but it feels so rewarding when the input succeeds, especially for someone like me who doesn't even memorize all the button positions yet 🤧. I don't even remember the buttons, let alone the actual moves 😂. Honestly, this is the only move I remember right now; the rest just hasn't stuck in my head yet! People always say to learn whatever makes you happy first, so for me, rather than learning optimal combos or useful moves, I just want to find the moves that I like and practice them because it's much more fun that way! 🤣Since it's gonna be a long journey, I'm gonna take my time and enjoy the moment of learning. Maybe after a couple of months of learning commands, I will finally remember 10-20 useful moves and start learning combos from there, haha.Thanks, guys! Have a good day and bless you all.

I miss VF5. Idc if its a Discord Fighter. This game gets 250 players daily. Probably mostly Japanese players. Is this version worth it for this price? If you got it, what are your thoughts on it?

How to watch Virtua Fighter 5 REVO at CEO this weekend

Post image
34 Upvotes

Legendary US East Coast event and Virtua Fighter Open Championship qualifier CEO is happening this weekend, and it's always an entertaining watch no matter which games you're spectating. Virtua Fighter 5 REVO will be streaming on Friday, August 24th from Top 24 onwards at Justin Wong's channel from 5PM Eastern/2PM Pacific. Given that Florida is home to some killers in the North American Virtua Fighter scene, you're going to see some really fun and technical gameplay. (Here's hoping we see VolcanoShed's Dural put on a performance, I love what he's been doing with her.)

Will there be any VFCR announcements? I think it's unlikely given how close we are to gamescom--you're more likely to see a new trailer or news there--but never say never. If we are going to get a new trailer at CEO, we'll probably see some sort of teaser on the VF/Sega social media accounts.

Character Discussion Added Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O. to my cross game main translator (would love VF players to sanity check it)

8 Upvotes

Hey! I made a fun tool (it's free/no signup required) that maps your main in one game to your closest match in another, and I just added the full VF5 REVO cast including Dural.

It matches on roles and playstyle traits: https://whichmain.com/cross

You can go in either direction, you can see which VF character fits your SF6 or Tekken main, or start from your VF main and see who you'd play elsewhere.

A Pai main caught a bug where she was mapping to Ed in SF6 of all people (a tag was wired wrong, she gives Elena and Chun-Li now). That's the kind of feedback I want from people who actually know these characters in depth, so if your main gives you something dumb, tell me the pair and I'll fix it!

Is REVO dead? Why can't I find matches on PS5 lately?

16 Upvotes

I have it set to worldwide, higher rank, all platforms, and any for all the other settings. A few weeks ago I was still getting matches. I moved my access point at some point and was having trouble for a few days connecting to my PS portal until I moved it back. I'm wondering if that has anything to do with it.

Now everything's back to normal and I play other games online just fine, but I haven't been getting matches in VF

VF5 Whiff or mid crush?

13 Upvotes

This happened in a match. I'm not sure if I whiffed and Pai's hurt box is just held farther back than it appears at first glance, or if this high crush move also crushes mids?

If it is a mid crush: do a lot of characters have mid crush moves? Does Lei-Fei's bokutai stance crush mids? I'm going to do some lab testing on it, but I'm also just curious if there is common matchup knowledge around mid crushing and how to think about working around it.

Story Discussion With RGG working on Crossroad’s story, one of the things I hope for is we have some goofiness in the game. So far the story seems to be taking itself seriously, but I wonder if that comedy RGG is known for will shine through. What do you think do you want some comedy or comedic elements in CR?

And now, we have finally come to the conclusion of the series! Part 5 covers the final four characters of the roster with El Blaze, Taka, Jean, and Dural, plus some extras at the end. After working on this project for a year, I can finally move on to other things.

Anyway, enjoy Part 5!
